FOIA Request to Town of Swiss Regarding New Voter Registrations on November 7, 2024.
In our ongoing efforts to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at Northwoods Reporter have sent a request under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., to the Town of Swiss. The request, dated November 7, 2024, seeks a list of new voters who registered to vote on November 5, 2024.
As a media organization dedicated to holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public, access to such records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. We believe that by sharing this information with the public, we can help ensure the integrity of our democratic processes and promote informed citizen participation.
We are awaiting a response from the Town of Swiss and will keep our readers updated as more information becomes available.
